Some people say you had intercourse because you were bored. I do not buy that explanation. Even though you decided to engage in an intimate act that is best suited for marriage, it only shows that you are as human as the rest of us. I am not supporting your decision to engage in premarital sex, but just letting you know that I can relate to your underlying search for love, happiness and fulfillment.
Juno, what I am trying to say is that you are not alone in your search. Underlying all the choices we make as humans, we are generally seeking contentment. While having sex outside of marriage is something that some teens will freely choose to engage in, it is only a passing pleasure. Please don’t misunderstand me though, sex in its purest form (within the boundaries of marriage) plays an essential role in the couple’s union. It is the “glue” so to speak that increases the intimacy, love, and joy of the relationship and has the possibility of creating new life. Sex then is something that is best kept within it’s respective boundaries, for it to truly flourish.
However, we are all human and make mistakes. I would like to applaud you for selflessly choosing to give up your baby for adoption. In your case, it was wonderful that you chose a nonviolent solution to a temporary life situation.
